Hell is the fourth level of Painkiller chapter 5 and also the final level in Painkiller. It appears on all difficulty modes except for Trauma difficulty - which disables all levels in chapter 5.

Description[]

This level is set, as the name implies, in Hell. In Painkiller, Hell is looking very differently from it's typical depiction. Instead of giant, volcanic cavers full of fire and flames it is depicted as gray, rocky planes with hills that are filled with depictions of humanity's worst catastrophes and wars frozen in time. At the very start of the level, the player finds himself surrounded by destroyed columns, and later sees two trebuchets storming a castle wall with flaming boulders, something resembling a primitive rocket and a launching pod, a giant army of attacking knights in a dust cloud, axes and swords flying in the air, blood-covered stakes protruding from the ground, another castle wall with burning ladders falling down from it, trenches of World War I filled with firing Maxim machineguns and explosions everywhere, near them are also two destroyed World War II planes, a World War II bunker, a ruined city devastated by explosions and an explorer, falling down a tall chimney emitting weird sounds. Next to the city is a pool of water and a sinking ship, presumed by many at first sight to be the RMS Titanic, which is wrong because at a closer inspection one can see that it is in fact a Dreadnought-class battleship. A destroyed, exploding in mid-air plane is hovering over the city, next to a giant, ruptured atomic rocket that emits battle commands and sounds of it flying. Towering over all of the hell is a humongous mushroom cloud. The player can hear screams and deformed sounds of those events all throughout the level.

Monsters[]

The ruler of Hell - Lucifer - is encountered here. There are also transparent versions of monsters encountered in previous levels but they are very weak and can be killed with one hit of any weapon. The transparent monsters include:
